... A data set contains a science frame and all its associated calibration frames. In order to archive a maximum of efficiency the CCD package uses a simple and straightforward naming convention: the names of the data sets are identical to the names of the science frames. ... By combining the calibration frames of a particular exposure type ( e.g. bias) the user can create a master calibration frame. ... Below follows a listing of calibration frames that currently can be handling in the CCD package. ...
